Indiana Speaker of the House Brian Bosma has been accused of having a sexual affair with an intern. He denies it, but he spent $40,000 in campaign funds to gather unflattering information about the young woman if she went public with the information. Republicans all operate in the same manner when they have been caught.

The poster child of wealth and privilege and status, Melania Trump is so clueless as to call herself "the most bullied person in the world." She and Trump and their sickening narcissism make a great pair.

Trump was looking at Kanye West blathering on and on like all Americans look at him every day.

Wow, the progressive left of the Democratic Party are calling for riots, assaulting Republicans, and perpetuating lies. Along with their childish, immature and unprofessional behavior, they are making the Democratic Party looked really bad. I vote for both parties and I am proud of that but with the way the Democratic leadership is going it will be hard to vote Democratic for a while. I believe in the Constitution whether it works in my favor or not.

Deutsche Bank has loaned Donald Trump over $2.5 billion since 1998. Deutsche Bank was fined $630 million for a $10 billion Russian money laundering scheme in 2017. Retiring Justice Anthony Kennedy’s son was Trump’s banker at Deutsche Bank. Is this all a coincidence?

Kanye West and Donald Trump together is quite a White House brain trust. I feel so much safer knowing these two monumental intellects are on the job.

Respect for women is only controversial to assaulter and their enablers. The real problem is that there seems to be so many of them.

The wife of a serial sexual molester and destroyer of women’s rights says that women need hard evidence of assault. FYI, sexual assault rarely takes place in front of an audience.

If Trump had called for a fair FBI background check for Kavanaugh, Dr. Ford, the other two women and their witnesses, it would have saved a lot of the current anger. Instead he lied and made a very narrow stipulation about who the FBI could interview, leaving out Kavanaugh, Dr. Ford and the others. Everyone knew this "investigation" was a sham and a whitewash. That's what caused the current, justified outrage. The protesters are not a Democratic, paid for "mob," as McConnell likes to portray them. They are angry citizens who have been treated unfairly, so that the Republicans could shove Kavanaugh into the Supreme Court with many questions still unanswered.

Michelle Obama wore a sleeveless dress and tried to help kids get healthier and she was bullied relentlessly. Melania plagiarized Michelle Obama’s speeches, posed nude, wore a jacket that said she didn’t care about children, blamed women for not producing evidence of being sexually assaulted and SHE is the one who is being bullied. Yeah, sure.

Much like Barry Bonds having an asterisk next to his name at the baseball hall of fame, I think it's only appropriate that Brett Kavanaugh have one next to his title as Supreme Court Justice. He, like Bonds, is only there because of rampant cheating and not enough people in power giving a damn to put a stop to it.

The idea that a victim's rights weren't violated when she was savagely mauled by a police dog just because she wasn't the intended target is absurd and that judge's ruling should be appealed. If the police kick doesn't my front door and rummage through my home by accident because they went to the wrong house, they've still trespassed and still violated my rights. Rulings like this make me glad to love in a state where I have the right to resist unlawful police activity, by force if need be.

What exactly is Trump's definition of the word Great? Great for him or for others.
